Chapter 100 Chapter 100 Our purpose in coming to Keya District...
Our original purpose for coming to the Keya District was to use the excuse of arresting the rebels. Even if the rebels didn't intend to flee towards the slum ruins, I would find a way to drive them there.
Now that the murderer who killed the prosecutor has been confirmed to be a rebel, it will be easier to catch him.
Not only could I use this as an excuse to get Jingzhao out of jail, but I could also head to the slum ruins with a bang. Perhaps the traitor had this in mind, hoping I'd offer up the information about the signal tower as bait.
He wants information about the signal tower, so I'll tell him. It depends on whether he lives to hear it.
Cassina and I left the prison cell and headed for the front hall.
The senior officials of the Keya District were already eagerly waiting for us, rubbing their hands in anticipation. Their eyes were filled with uncertainty, but their words were still full of flattery and courtesy.
Reporters crowded at the back, trying to stick their heads out to see what was happening, but were stopped outside.
"General, Vice President Bai." The official standing in the front walked over with a warm smile. "Have both of your matters been dealt with?"
"No." I smiled even more warmly and cordially than he did, arm in arm with him in front of a crowd of reporters. "Or do you think my situation is easy to handle?"
The official looked flattered when I put my arm around his shoulder, but after hearing the second half of my words, he broke out in a sweat and his smile faltered. "How dare I? Vice President Bai, you handle matters far more seriously than a junior officer like me. I was just speaking based on my limited understanding."
Listen, what a smooth talk! If I didn't have bad intentions, I would really fall for it.
"What are you talking about?" I shook my head in disapproval. "Don't underestimate yourself. You can definitely do it."
"It just so happens that the General and I have obtained some useful information from the prisoners in the prison. I'm sure you can use it."
Seeing he was still reluctant, I simply waved my hand. "No time like the day. Forget about the pleasantries and formalities. Let's solve this problem once and for all today. We're all here anyway, so whoever is responsible for this task should solve it right here and now."
"Anyone who shirks responsibility and fails to resolve the problem," I said, my eyes becoming more meaningful as I looked at Kasena with a pointed look. "The Senate and senior military officers of the military zone have the right to act first and report later."
After I said this, I felt the official I was holding become even stiffer.
My words were recorded completely by the reporters and broadcast word for word on major screens in the Keya area.
Cassina's hand was on the holster, and when her cold eyes swept over me, I accurately captured the silent emotion in them.
At noon on September 2, the news that the prosecutor was assassinated on the evening of September 1 was revealed by the vice president himself, and the culprit had been identified as the remnants of the rebel party.
In the next period of time, Vice President Bai and General Katsuna will do their best to hunt down the rebels.
Jing Zhao, the leader of the march who was wrongfully imprisoned, was acquitted at 7 pm on September 2 and returned to normal life.
Jing Zhao was acquitted, but the officials could not return to their lives.
All officials were imprisoned, and old cases, false charges, and wrongful convictions were dug up, and they were rounded up one by one for questioning. Passing the buck and failing to answer? Great, just have the soldiers seal off their homes.
In this way, after killing a few groups of people to scare the monkeys, the rest of the officials finally became obedient.
This entire process was broadcast live by reporters.
By midnight, the noise in the prison had died down.
I scratched my hair and felt my back and waist ache.
"Has the curfew order been confirmed?" I asked.
"Everything has been ordered. Soldiers have begun patrolling the area. Any suspicious individuals found will be arrested immediately." Xiaolin followed behind me and spoke quickly. "It's just that we're short on troops. Do we need to ask the general to call in more soldiers?"
"Why not?" I said as a matter of course.
When Kasena came over, she heard it and said, "The teacher also asked for more troops."
I was a little surprised. "Rondo is so fast? It must have taken a lot of effort to bypass Cutler and pass the bill?"
Is it the military zone route? Or is Fan Su maneuvering in it?
I couldn't figure out why, so I turned to ask Xiaolin.
She was Carter's person, and she knew this better than I did. "Did the captain say anything to you? Or did he want to warn me about something?"
Xiao Lin: "...She did send me a message after seeing the live broadcast in the Keya District this afternoon, saying that you should cooperate with General Kasena."
“After that, I don’t know.”
I asked Catherine again: "What does your mother ask you to do?"
Cassina: ...
She pursed her lips and didn't answer.
From her silent response, I roughly understood what Cutler meant. He simply wanted to seize this opportunity to seize the power of the Keya District, and preferably also take over the management of the slum ruins.
But this obviously did not conform to Cassina's position. She was afraid that Kobayashi would hear it if she said it in public, so she simply chose to remain silent.
"Since it wasn't you, then your teacher must have done something good," I said.
I found the communicator and found that Ali had sent me a message.
I quickly glanced through the message and deleted it calmly. "Ali sent me a message."
"Kanoka shot and killed Yosir Hori, and the bystander present was Fansu."
As soon as I finished speaking, Kasena frowned, "Impossible, Noka is not such an impulsive person."
He certainly has an impulsive personality, but I also know that Kasena is not referring to this aspect, but rather the "virtuous" aspect. As the wedding day draws closer, Kanoka will only pay more attention to his words and actions.
Even though Yosier was my lover, Kanoka dismissed it as a "trivial matter." The impulsive act that caused Kanoka to shoot Yosier must have been Fansu's doing.
Of course, it is not ruled out that Yosir really wants to provoke someone without caring about his life.
"Kasena, it doesn't matter whether it is or not," I said to Kasena. "What matters is that Carter gave in. You are now in the Keya District, and this is a crucial time to seize power. Even the slightest negligence cannot be tolerated. Besides, he will not let Noka go to jail."
For Cassina's sake, Cutler would simply give in and let the bill pass.
This would allow Cassina to send troops to the Upward City under the pretext of preventing the rebels from infiltrating.
Anyway, Cassina is Carter's daughter, and everyone assumes that they are in the same group.
Does Cassina understand this?
Of course I understand, but it doesn't affect her anger.
"Yosier is your lover," said Kasena, "Nuoka is your fiancé."
She suppressed her anger and looked down at me.
The atmosphere is a bit depressing.
I straightened my back and complained in my heart why all the alphas looked like Optimus Prime, which made my neck hurt.
"Xiao Lin, you go back first."
Kobayashi felt relieved and left quickly with the documents.
"You knew the teacher would take action against Yosir Hori," Katsuna said directly, her brows furrowed with a hint of annoyance. "Noka knew that too, right?"
"Yes." I admitted generously, "Casena, are you angry? Angry that I used Noka and tricked him into killing Yosir during this period?"
Cassina frowned even more tightly, telling me that this was exactly what she was unhappy about.
I chuckled. "Casena, Yosir knows our identities, but he's a member of the Hori family. Keeping him around is like a time bomb. And he and Noka just happen to dislike each other. Isn't this the perfect opportunity?"
"I've already said that the organization won't let me do anything that interferes with the organization. If I agree, it means there are benefits. Then the benefits will come, right? After the bill is passed, our people can enter Ascend City smoothly, and your military forces can also enter Ascend City smoothly. Carter will also cover for you."
"Are you worried about Noka? There's no need. The chief will remember his contribution."
“…”Casena’s chest rose and fell slightly.
She was tall, and in the Keya area where most people were beta, her excessive height seemed to make the ceiling of the corridor seem shorter.
The small space and her tall figure created a strong contrast, so much so that I felt oppressed when I looked up at her.
So I started to wander around again, gritting my teeth and wondering why alphas can only be so tall, and betas also want to be that tall!
When I came back from my trip to the heavens, Cassina hadn't figured out how to refute me.
This is what a taciturn person is like. He can talk a lot at work, but when talking about personal matters, he can't say a word for a long time.
I just watched her, wanting to say something but stopping herself, wanting to hit me but not doing it, so she just waved her hand and walked away.
"Bye~" I waved goodbye from behind.
Rest areas are also provided in the prison.
Xiaolin and I discussed tomorrow's work content and followed the prison guard to the rest area.
The prison guard kept looking back, and even after he sent me into the room, he still couldn't help but look at me.
I turned back to him and he blushed, "Bai, Vice President Bai, this is it."
The living conditions are pretty good, with water, electricity, TV and air conditioning.
I thanked him and asked him before he left, "Do you have any midnight snacks? I'm a little hungry."
The young man's face turned even redder, and his fair and handsome face was full of nervousness and helplessness.
Of course I'm not asking about midnight snacks.
The circle printed on his pocket is so obvious that it is hard for me not to see it.
"Yes, I do, but I have to go get ready."
I raised an eyebrow, "Okay."
After the door closed, I went to the bathroom.
When I came out again, the guy had changed his clothes and came back.
He was very reserved throughout the whole process, trying hard to flirt, and asking me some strange questions.
For example, what is the difference between alpha and omega? What is the difference between beta and other genders?
Do I really love my fiancé? Will I forget him after this time and never care about him again?
I didn't answer, and he looked at me with an aggrieved expression, so pitiful.
When he was almost taking off his clothes to his pants, he looked at me with red eyes, "You, why didn't you react?"
"Don't you like me?"
It was as if I suddenly understood something, and I started to shrug, "I knew my image in the organization would be ruined sooner or later! Now everyone thinks I accept everyone."
"I'm very principled. I won't eat anything unclean."
The young man was stunned, and the color on his originally red cheeks faded away. "You, what do you mean?"
I looked at him with a frown, lowering my gaze. "Didn't you hear that? That shouldn't be the case. With your level of proficiency, you must have done similar things before."
His face suddenly changed when he was exposed, and he quickly took out a gun from his clothes and pointed it at me.
"Bang!"
The bullet went through the door and hit him in the wrist.
"Ahhhh!" He screamed in pain.
Cassina opened the door, and her already unhappy face became even uglier. "Hmph!"
I kicked the traitor to the ground and pinned him down with handcuffs. Listening to Cassina's dissatisfied hum, I looked innocent and said, "I didn't do anything. He wanted to take off his clothes himself!"
